| Pascal. You need to start searching the forum. The answers are here. We are way past the cause of the war and who started it.
"Lord Chelmsford invaded Zululand without the knowledge of the British Government in the hope that he could Capture Cetshwayo, the Zulu King, before London discovered that hostilities had begun." |

| Chelmsford also wouldn't have invaded without Bartle Frere.

| Hi all
When the brave Zulu jumped on him he had to be happy too ...
Bonaparte was not Prince. And very little French, saw his ancestors.
His father was the president of the republic in 1848, as elected by a majority of those who had the right to vote at the time.
The Bonapartes had always assumed power through coups, so they are not legitimate rulers of France.
So all they have done in history is not legitimate, so it is not the history of France, is the history of the Bonaparte family ...
Cheers

| What happened in England in 1066 was not a coup ? We accept it as part of English history. |

This might be your view but i do not think it added to the discussion and this is not a politcal forum .
Personally i am very proud of our Colonial past. |

| Garry The invasion of Britain by the Normans, Bretons, Flemings and French in 1066 is not a coup, Edward the Confessor had designated William of Normandy as his legitimate successor ... In addition, people proud of his country's colonial past, when we see what state is africa today is really the ... Pascal |

| I think we are in grave danger of going off topic but ; from Encyclopedia Britannia ;
"On his deathbed, Edward named Harold as his successor".
i am not sure if your other remark is an insult to me personally or my country in general but i do not think it is called for . |

| Dear Gary
For 1066 you do not have the good encyclopedia, but it's normal it's your nationalism speaking, although Britain is 70 years since an American state.
In that touches the colonies in Africa, this also applies to the French, Belgians, Germans, Italians, Spanish and Portuguese.
Cheers

| i am not sure the Americans rewrite our encyclopedias to change the line of succesion .
In fact i am sure they have never heard of William the C or Harold .
Worth remembering that if had not been for England 70 years ago then europe would have been a German state - America did its fair share as well , unless my history is wrong on that as well ?

| Dear Springbok 9
To insult people, it is best when people are facing you ...
That's why I never do on a forum ...
Some people with me, I prefer their kicking to argue with that, it's a great habit for me since childhood, temperament issue, is why I never insult someone on a forum ...
Best regards

| Before this topic gets deleted, I believe that the Zulus are responsible for the AZW and that Frere provided them with the means to instigate it.

| I suppose one could follow lines right back to Jan van Riebeeck, however the whole invasion was designed to achieve the dream of confederation, and that started with Lord Carnarvon and James Anthony Froud. The rest was just a progression.

| The Zulu responsible for this war? But then they were foolish enough to provoke the Great - Britain ...? Do not they know its power and their king had he not allowed his troops to penetrate in Natal ... The poor, they imaginient still not able to have the same incredibly lucky that Red Cloud in 1868 ...
